    The Steppe holds women in very special regard. You'd be challenged to find another land with such immense territories where the Woman Beauty would be glorified quite in the same way in people’s memories as legends and tales, but most of all, in the names of the rivers, lakes and the land itself, be it a mountain gorge, a plateau in the prairie, or a turn of a river. The Kazakhs name stars and planet after beautiful maiden names—Aiman, Sholpan, Sumbile. The women of the Kazakh steppes shine in their indescribable beauty. The descriptions of their eyes, face, hair, stature, a smooth gait, and the light of their womanly virtues, grace some of the very best pages of the Kazakh lyrical epos. The popular artist Agymsaly Duzelkhanov glorifies the beauty of the Kazakh women in his very own, special way. His painting “Kalyndyk” (The Bride) depicts a fragment of a wedding caravan, a moment when the Bride in her ornate carriage is headed to her new home in the groom’s aoul. Her natural beauty is highlighted by a rich pattern of ethnic jewelry and “Saukele,” a traditional wedding headpiece trimmed with gold threads and decorated with precious stones.
